    What a weekend!

    I did manage to have a nice big row with what's-her-name.  I told her to shut up and that she can't have it both ways.  If my life is none of her business then she is to stop giving me orders, or making comments as to what I do.  Saturday she called me a pre-op freak. On top of it, she wants me to help her pay her gas bill.  Hmmm.....I haven't lived there since August 29, and it's my responsibility?  But I did get to see my daughter's footy match.  They tied 1-1.

    But the big news is that I went to a graduation party for that one former student, who looks as beautiful as ever.  She had the most delicious homecooked Mexican food.  I also met a lot of nice people.  Then these Mexican women were all over me.  My student's mother kept trying to convince me she was only 50.  Uh huh.  Honey, you were 50 when the Civil War was going on.  But she was a nice lady and even dragged me out onto the dance floor.  For a second there I thought she was going to rape me.  Then another woman kept hugging me and trying to convince me she wasn't drunk.  Hell, I was getting drunk off her breath alone.

    I was dragged up to do karaoke twice.  I thought all the songs were out of my vocal range, and when they explained they could lower the key I was stuck.  I first did "Let It Be" and even got a round of applause when I finished.  Then, this very pretty woman from Mexico City drags me up there to do a traditional Mexican song with her.  Two problems - 1. I don't speak Spanish; and 2. I didn't know the song.  On top of it all, I might see her again this Saturday.  Maybe.  That is, if she hasn't changed her mind already.

    I got to the party at 6:30 and didn't leave until almost 2.  I haven't had a night out like that in years, much less have so much fun.  I feel great.

    I rented a car and a motel room so I could make a real night out of it, something else that irked the wicked witch.  Apparently I'm not allowed to spend any of my own money on myself.  I did treat myself to a new outfit.  It's a black top with a burgundy skirt.  It's really cute.  Then, on the way back yesterday, I treated myself to a delicious surf and turf lunch. That's something else I haven't had in years (among other things!).

    I also had the chance to stop at the Hindu temple and spend some time at Sri Krishna's shrine.  I always get a lot of looks there at the temple because I don't exactly look the regular clientele (to use that phrase).  They're always polite to me, though.

    So, here I am, Monday morning, and still tired as hell!  I need another nap!
